Infographic: Ten Tips for a Healthier Workplace

I'm sharing another infographic on workplace wellness courtesy of Compliance and Safety. These are ten tips that are worth considering, for the benefit of workers in the workplace, be it the shopfloor or the standard offices. Most of these things are really taken for granted because too much focus is given to delivering quotas and oftentimes failing to see how an unhealthy workplace contributes to low productivity.

Some of these, we already do in our company, but I would sure welcome having healthy activities in the office (tip no. 4). That's something we lack here. A really neat idea is to have a small gym inside the premises. Been dreaming of that for quite sometime now, but as it is, it's out of my hands. It's management decision and they have not yet considered that seriously. Well, I'm still hoping! I'm sure I'll frequent that place...a lot!

How about you? What health programs do you employ in the workplace? Do share with us some of your tips to having a healthy workplace.

Promoting wellness in the workplace is really something good. In mine for example, we have weekly badminton games. And next year the plan is to have the "biggest" loser challenge starting Jan. :) It's gonna be fun, am sure! :) Thanks for sharing this one.

just recently, the physical therapist in my office went to each workstation to check on our ergonomic chairs and the proper positioning of our computers; she was able to correct my posture. we also have a gym though I must admit I haven't maximized its use :-(

At first sight, if a certain workplace is healthy or not for us. For just a matter of time, my friend experienced this a lot, he was stressed at work, bullied and feeling down. Until, someone shared us this site http://www.safetybusinesslearning.co.uk about the things we should have known to protect ourselves at work. What happen next is that, I helped him consult from our HR and talked about his rights and how to avoid it. For me, it really is important to know the aspects of employment law to secure a healthier workplace for you.

Hi! Thank you so much for taking the time to visit this site. This is basically a blog about my personal journey towards better health as I try to hold hypertension at bay, or possibly reverse the condition. Towards the end of 2011, I started taking health and wellness more seriously, something I should have done decades ago. It's never too late to start and I know I have a long way to go. I hope you'll journey with me...better yet, run with me. It's one of the things I enjoy doing at the moment and you'll see a lot of my running escapades here.

To good health!!!
